You cannot unlock N series phones without changing a chip inside we have been quoted around 5000thb for an N-70.

some bb5 phones now can be unlocked without opening the unit.i'm not sure about n95.i can unlock your n70 though.

It is not impossible to unlock a N series telephone, paying for changing a chip inside is just indication that the shop has not the ability to reburn new eprom chips. Anything is possible, the data program cable is not available for Southeast Asia at the moment, I see some cables in Scandinavia...but still needed Nokia software.

For any information please contact Nokia Thailand, as they support local law and it is possible to keep them to the service they say in some "misprinted" in some of the service manuals. So read your manual and look for the text for support of GSM networks, if it says nothing about or in anyways restrictions by your current provider....

Unlock it for what? If it's an N95, most likely purchased outside the USA and it should be unlocked....at least mine was

I bought it in uk, and it is lock to T-mobile uk, and I need it for thailand

Have you tried TM-UK? I've seen other people get theirs unlocked in 2-3 days though they claim 28 days return time....

I wonder if reflashing the N95 to the latest firmware while changing the product code through NSS will work....I know it works to de-brand a phone, my N95 is now running v12.0.013....

Not sure if you are still in the U.K. or not but T-Mo/UK will unlock this model for a fee (~ 25 quid). That might be preferable to potentially getting it 'bricked' here in Thailand?

I sent you the link for NSS.....

That link has info on product codes and changing the code....I hope it works for you? I'm not sure if this will work to unlock the phone or not, but at least it'll "de-brand" the phone and let you update the firmware to the latest rev.....you can write down your original product code under the battery, then change it to one of the ones in the above link, update your phone with nokia sw updater, then change the product code back to what it was.....

If you know the "PUK" code you can unlock it.The service provider should have given it to you when you signed up.Here is some other info:

1. My phone is requesting a PIN/PIN2/PUK/PUK2 code.

Your phone is equipped with one or more codes to protect it against unauthorized use. The PIN and PUK codes actually protect the SIM card, a small card inside your phone that establishes the network connection.

In most cases, your operator or service provider is the best source of assistance with PIN and PUK codes.

The most common code is the PIN (Personal Identification Number) code, which you set yourself and can activate and inactivate by following the instructions in your user guide.

The PIN2 code is a PIN code which acts as a second layer of protection for certain features of your phone. It functions in the same way as the PIN code, and more information is available in your user guide.

If the PIN code is entered incorrectly multiple times, your phone may request a PUK (Personal Unblocking Key) code. The PUK code is an 8-digit code provided by your operator or service provider.

If the PIN2 code is entered incorrectly multiple times, your phone may request a PUK2 code.

Please contact your operator or service provider for assistance with your PIN and/or PUK codes. If you have already contacted your service provider and the code provided did not work, you will have to obtain a new SIM card from your operator or service provider.

2. My phone is requesting a security code.

Your phone is equipped with one or more codes to protect it against unauthorized use. Please note that the security code, which protects the phone itself, differs from the PIN code, which protects the SIM card.

If your phone is prompting you for a security code and you have not activated one, please try the following:

Enter the default security code: 12345. Only try this once.

If your phone still requests a security code, please bring it to the nearest Nokia Care point for inspection. You can find Care point addresses from the drop-down menu at the bottom of Repair.

Please note:

Some operators configure phones so that they only work with their brands' SIM cards. In this case, if you enter the wrong code three or more consecutive times, the phone may lock permanently. If this happens, contact your operator or service provider for assistance.

In other cases when you enter the wrong code three or more consecutive times, the phone switches to a "sleep mode" and does not accept any entries for the next 15 minutes. In this case, power the phone off, then back on, let it sit idle or untouched for 15 minutes, then try again or bring it to a Nokia Care point.

3. My phone displays "SIM card rejected" or "SIM card unaccepted".

The SIM (subscriber identity module) card is a small card inside your phone that establishes a network connection. The SIM card is provided by your operator or service provider. In most cases, they are the best source of assistance with SIM card problems. Your phone may display a SIM card error message if:

The SIM card is out of alignment. If the phone has recently been dropped, bumped, or opened, the SIM card may need adjusting. Follow the SIM card installation instructions in your user guide.

The PUK (Personal Unblocking Key) code is entered incorrectly multiple times. This can inactivate the SIM card. If inactivation appears to be permanent, contact your operator or service provider for a new SIM card.

You have recently changed service providers. In this case, either your SIM card or your phone may be configured for your previous operator and may require reconfiguring. It may also be that your phone is configured so that it cannot be used with a SIM card from a different operator or service provider. Please contact your current operator or service provider for assistance.

If none of the situations above apply and you continue to receive this error message, your SIM card may be damaged. Please contact your operator or service provider to have the SIM card tested and/or replaced. Or alternately, bring your phone to the nearest Nokia Care point for inspection. You can find Care point addresses from the drop-down menu at the bottom of Repair.

Good luck!
